My BopPad just sends a constant note. Is it broken?

Probably not, and there’s a few things you can do. When powering on, BopPad goes through a short calibration routine. It’s important not to be touching any of the sensors during this time. Placing pressure on the sensors could result in stuck notes. Generally a simple power cycle will restore the unit to normal behavior. A firmware reinstall from the Editor can also alleviate hardware quirks.

Sending the “Reset all controllers” message (CC 121) to the BopPad on any channel will perform a short recalibration. Sending the “All Sounds Off” message (CC 120) to the BopPad on any channel will make it output a note off message for all notes across all quadrants.
